Creating a Pattern from an Line Drawing (England Design)

In this video, Cynthia shows you how easy it is to create a pattern from a line drawing. Using her Picture Piecing technique, you'll be able to design a quilt pattern that uses only straight seams, no set-in seams, to create detailed imagery in your quilts.

This is fantastic! I had a lot of trouble trying to figure out how to create my own FPP pattern from a photo but learning your methods made it a lot easier. Just ordered your book and can't wait for it to arrive!

Fantastic video! I just started foundation paper piecing and can't wait to try this. Thank you.

This is an absolutely amazing video with so much detail. Thank you.

Why don't you just make the object & background separately, then simply affix the object to the background? That seems much easier. The object can have fusible added after, or use fused pieces from the Starr, like Emily Taylor`s parchment method.
I like the KISS principle. It suits my lazy nature & simple mind 😄

You can scrap my comments. They don't apply to foundation piecing. Too difficult for me. 😄

Too much sewing, I should have said.
